I was talking to this guy and we were discussing how, if you had land with cattle on it, sometimes you could take in a cow to have it butchered and trade half the cow for the cost of butchering the other half. His next question was, "You have places to hunt cows around here?"

Beware.. he may be coming to a cattle ranch near you!

lol

I know about the 1/2 & 1/2 deal....but hunting cows!?

What's next, housecats? Don't answer that...

WHEW,!!There out there!!

can i get his number? if i dont score on some game this year at least maybe a could stalk a cow......

Give him my name, I've got 3 trophy Brangus bulls. Old Otis will definitely go B&C. 5000.00 for a guided hunt.

lol theres one out there somewhere lol....'sides if u dont watch it there are some cows that stalk u

put the sneak on them in the 3d leaf. i wonder if primos makes a call for them. bet it sounds like a feed bucket.....

I guess this Chinese hunter dreamed about them Texas Longhorns long enough.... lol

Goes to show what a trophy is to me might not be one to somebody else, huh?

I forget the sum that this one guy paid to kill a tame buffalo down south of here, but it was a pile of dough. The rancher turned the bull loose just before the guy got there, took the guy to the bull's favorite spot and let him take his trophy.

Hard for me to imagine, but that's how it goes...

No need for the sneak or camo, just get in the back of the truck and I'll pull into the pasture and honk the horn.

And they both walked away happy.

Most of the time all you have to do is drive towards the barn....

today while going up to the store to get ice, i stopped in the road to get a limb out of the middle of the road & in that half a minute it took i had a whole herd heading for the car....i was like gezzzzzzzzz lol

Folks, I really hate to ruin your fun, but in the Fort Worth, Dallas, Houston, Austin, and San Antonio papers nearly every Sunday there are ads for Trophy Long Horn Steers.

I sometimes don't know if everyone on here has led a real sheltered life or not, but there are people out there that would pay good money to shoot your favorite horse.

I heard a supposedly true story about a guy that was hunting on one of the Trophy ranches in west Texas, and wqhen he got thru shooting whatever it was he was after, he asked his guide how kuch would it be to shoot a jackrabbit. The guide told him $25.00. The next jackrabbit they saw, the "Hunter" hollered stop, shot the rabbit, and handed the guide the $25.00.

I have told this on here before, but we had a hunter a couple of years back that talked about going from Arkansas to Colorado, and paying like $1000.00 to shoot a cow Buffalo in a pen. He had never shot a Buffalo and wanted to, and that was the best deal he found.

my parents in NE do that same deal with the hogs they raise; 1/2 and 1/2

I read the paper and never seen an ad for one in the Dallas Morning News.

My friend shot a cow. The rancher who was his uncle ordered him too. It was sick though. They let it lie. Don't know what it scored...

i believe when mentioned in the paper for "Trophy Long Horned Steers" they were refering to trophy blood line for those big long horns ppl like to hang on their walls...but then again w/ some ppl out there u may never know lol

Yes, I guess people sell the horns for the walls in the paper but never seen an ad to go shoot one. I grew up with a set on my wall my dad won at a party back in the 80's. I went to Tech so I threw them in the trash. lol.

I know of 3 guys who drove to Kansas last summer to shoot some bull Elk out of a 10 acre pasture. They paid $650 each and they all came home with an elk. Not my cup of tea but it would make for some cheap Elk meat.

So Tx, do you have a set of Red Raiders on your wall!!!?

Hopefully I can ask you this question without making you or anyone else mad, but do you check out the livestock for sale classifieds, especially the cattle section on a regular basis?

They don't de-horn those animals to get the horns. The animal has to be killed, so it doesn't matter if it is just the horns, a full shoulder mount, or a european mount, the steer is gonna die.

The owners don't care how it dies as long as they get their money.

I have seen a few "hunts" for cattle listed places, but no matter how it is done, the same basic steps have to take place for the "Trophy" to end up on the wall.

I thought you meant in the hunting lease classifieds. Better to sell them for the monday than waste them.

Yes Cool, I have a trophy Raider Red nose on my wall. Them Saddle Tramps are still after me!

there have been articles i have read in the past where on some very large acareage ranches the cows dont get rounded up regularly & start to go wild & owners end up "hunting" then & usually have ppl pay to go hunt one up
